Chapter Seventy-Two: Apprenticeship
The stars are sparse and the moon is bright, the kingfisher has called three times in the forest, and under the honeysuckle tree, the stream is waving a wooden branch boringly.
The twigs swiped through the air, occasionally making a snorting sound.
"Hah!"
A cry rang out in this empty and lonely night.
Startled, creatures in the night ran around.
In the Lotus Road, Zhang Ziming was panting again and again, his chest rose and fell, and his head was already sweating profusely.
Xi heard the movement, turned over, saw Zhang Ziming wake up from the illusion, and said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, I thought you wouldn't wake up until dawn. ”
Zhang Ziming saw the stream slowly walking towards him, and all the things that had happened before gushed out like a spring.
Zhang Ziming was about to open his mouth and asked, "This..."
Brook waved his hand and interrupted, "I know what you want to ask.
You have entered the illusion of the real Lotus Man.
Nothing that happened was real.
And you don't have to worry about what's going on in the illusion.
The answer to this assessment, the real person said, will know when you wake up.
Oh, by the way, the real person also said that when it is dawn, the apprenticeship ceremony will be carried out. ”
When Zhang Ziming heard that the real person was ready to accept him as an apprentice, his originally confused heart became joyful, touched his head, and grinned.
Xi squatted down, the same height as Zhang Ziming, looked left and right, and asked Zhang Ziming mysteriously.
"What did you see in the illusion? Also, the real person said the answer, alas, what is the answer?"
Zhang Ziming had the intention of teasing and said seriously.
"In the illusion, I saw a big thing about you!"
Xi was even more curious, and asked urgingly, "What's the matter?" Didn't you see this big snake Jackie Chan, ahahahaha." ”
Zhang Ziming saw Xi's smug look, nodded and said, "I didn't see the dragon, but I dreamed that you became a bowl of snake soup." ”
Xi understood that Zhang Ziming had the intention to tease him, so he cut it off, and secretly despised it in his eyes.
Zhang Ziming smiled and said to the stream.
"It's about the old Heian Town, but it's strange to say..."
Just as Zhang Ziming was about to talk about what he saw in the illusion, he subconsciously touched his waist, and suddenly his heart was excited, and he actually touched something the size of a scroll on his waist.
Zhang Ziming took it out, his eyes were surprised, wasn't this the scroll that Laiwang handed to him in the illusion?
Xi was on the side, looking at the things in Zhang Ziming's hand, and asked curiously.
"Is this your new footwrap?"
Zhang Zi understood Xi at a glance, this snake, where did he learn these all day long.
Zhang Ziming didn't answer, thinking of Laiwang's last few words, he knew in his heart that there must be an ulterior secret recorded on this scroll, and this secret is completely incapable of touching at present.
Zhang Ziming's hand that was about to open the scroll stopped abruptly, and slowly wrapped the scroll and put it into the space ring between his fingers.
Xi was inexplicably looking at it on the side, but seeing Zhang Ziming's serious expression, he muttered in his heart.
Zhang Ziming raised his head, looked at the stream, and explained.
"It's a big matter, let's talk about it later. ”
Seeing Zhang Ziming speak, Xi understood that this matter must be extraordinary, nodded and did not delve into it anymore.
......
In the early morning, the sky is clear.
The rolling sea of clouds is illuminated by the morning sun, white and red.
In the lotus view, the wooden door in the house creaked, and the lotus real person pushed the door out.
"Master, please drink tea!"
Lotus Zhenren looked at it fixedly, and saw Zhang Ziming holding the tea in his hand, kneeling outside the house uprightly, with a respectful expression, and his eyes were full of expectation.
Lotus Zhenren looked up to the sky and smiled, reached out to take the teacup, tasted it, and praised.
"Good tea!"
Zhang Ziming was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly bowed three times to the lotus real person.
After Zhang Ziming finished knocking, the lotus real person shook the dust in his hand, and the top was elongated, and Zhang Ziming was gently helped up.
"Since you and I have the fate of master and apprentice, we will not need these false gifts in the future. ”
Zhang Ziming nodded and replied.
Lotus took small steps and said as he walked.
"My disciples, I don't ask you to do righteousness, but you must not be that treacherous and despicable person, and do many evil things, which is also the only requirement of this sect. You remember. ”
"The disciple has written it down!"
Lotus Zhenren nodded slightly, and continued, "But if someone wantonly provokes, then it's up to you to use your own means." ”
After that, he cast an obscure gaze at Zhang Ziming.
Zhang Ziming understood, smiled and nodded.
Lotus Zhenren waved the dust in his hand and said.
"Door rules, after speaking, you have also performed the ritual of apprenticeship, then now you are my Lotus real disciple.
The past will also be scattered with the wind.
I teach my disciples that it's only three months, and after three months, you can practice on your own. ”
"March?" Zhang Ziming was taken aback and asked cautiously, "Master, three months, will it be too short?"
Lotus Zhenren chuckled, "One day in the cave, a thousand years in the world." Haven't you heard of it?"
With that, with a wave of one hand, a lotus pedestal flew out of his sleeve.
I saw this lotus pedestal spinning back and forth in the air, scattering a few colored rays of light from time to time.
Zhang Ziming was curious and asked, "Master, what is this?"
Lotus Zhenren replied, "This is Lotus Mountain!"
Lotus Mountain? Zhang Ziming heard this, puzzled, this lotus pedestal is boxy, with an open and closed lotus flower on the top, if it is said to be a magic weapon, Zhang Ziming naturally believes it, but to say that it is a mountain, it is a little too far-fetched.
Seeing the confusion in Zhang Ziming's eyes, the lotus real person waved one hand and turned around, "You say, what is near my Lotus Temple?"
Zhang Ziming thought for a while, "Rivers and forests, beasts and birds." ”
"So, what's missing?"
Zhang Ziming suddenly realized at this moment, and his eyes lit up.
What is missing in this lotus view is an aura.
Zhang Ziming recalled what he saw in Lingyun Xianmen, the momentum was like a rainbow, auspicious and churning, and he knew at a glance that it was extraordinary.
And looking at the lotus view, it is ordinary, just like the world, and it is the aura in the immortal gate that is missing.
The Lotus Daoist said slowly, "In the past, I realized the Tao under the Lotus Spirit Mountain, and I was fortunate to have the mercy of heaven, and I got a glimpse of the corner of the Heavenly Dao, and I felt it in my heart, so I refined this Lotus Mountain as my natal weapon. Then a Van mountain was left behind and it was replaced. ”
Zhang Ziming's heart was shocked, this lotus real person was able to refine the spiritual mountain and skillfully seize the leylines between his hands, and his cultivation was afraid that he had already reached the peak, but he didn't know what kind of realm he was in.
"Then you will enter this immortal mountain and meet me in my true body. ”
After that, the lotus real person didn't have time for Zhang Ziming to react, and with a wave of his palm, Zhang Ziming only felt that a fresh breeze held him up, and he fluttered up and flew towards the lotus platform.
It is also strange to say that the lotus pedestal was originally the size of a palm, but the more Zhang Ziming leaned in, the more the pedestal was magnified tenfold.
Wait until Zhang Ziming completely falls into the seat.
I saw the mountains and rivers undulating and criss-crossed, the white cranes flying together, the different flowers blooming, the colorful clouds floating, and the auspicious soaring.
Zhang Ziming opened his mouth wide, and he slowly fell from the sky, looking at the scene in front of him, he felt extremely shocked in his heart.
Overlooking Lingshan, Fang Jue is vast and exquisite.
Zhang Ziming fell in a Taoist temple, and a yellow-robed Taoist inside slowly got up, which was the real body of the lotus flower.
I saw that Lotus Zhenren saw Zhang Ziming and smiled slightly, "In the past ten years, I finally saw a new disciple again." ”
Zhang Ziming hurriedly bowed, "Master, apprentice Zhang Ziming, meet the master." ”
Lotus Zhenren was originally ten inches away from Zhang Ziming, but when he took a step, he had already walked in front of Zhang Ziming.
"Not bad. Although you originally had a poor foundation, you were used by someone to complete it with a secret method, and now you are considered complete. ”
Zhang Ziming secretly admired in his heart, a master is really a master, just one glance, he can see through his qualifications.
I was a little worried in my heart, I knew that there were six stone tablets in the sea, which were very extraordinary, and I don't know if the master could see through it.
If so, how can I explain it?
When Zhang Ziming was worried, Lotus Zhenren had already shifted his gaze and looked at the clouds and xia in the distance.
I only listened to the real person of Lotus to speak.
"Ziming, would you like to listen to a story told by the teacher? ”
Zhang Ziming nodded and looked at the lotus real person.
"Six hundred years ago, when the dynasty was still alive, all the laws appeared, and there were many gates.
At that time, the Xianmen was not as beautiful as it is now.
After the invasion of the demon clan, the human emperor fell, and the dynasty was furious, thinking that the law of the immortal gate won the luck of the heavens and the earth, and it was so secretly hurt the qi of the royal family, causing the human emperor to suffer.
The battle between Xianmen and the dynasty began.
However, the methods of the Xianmen people are changeable, and the longevity of the Yuan infant is more than 300 years, and the longevity of the Yuan Yuan alone has exceeded the 100-year longevity of the dynasty.
The two sides have been fighting for a long time, and in the end both sides lost. At this time, both sides were worried that the demon clan would come back, so they shook hands and made peace. ”
Zhang Ziming nodded again and again, curious in his heart, this history has already been talked about by many people, and it is not a secret, but I don't know what the master means when he mentions it at this time.
At that moment, Zhang Ziming was patient and continued to listen to what Lotus Zhenren said.
"And at that time, there were people in the Xianmen who really seriously investigated the matter of seizing luck.
I never thought that it was really involved, a shocking secret. ”
Zhang Ziming was shocked, and he was apprehensive, he had a feeling that the matter that Lotus Zhenren said next was related to the origin of the six stone tablets in his sea of knowledge.
Lotus Zhenren retracted his gaze, the wind was light, he looked around, and continued
"This involves an exercise, the Inspiration Sutra!"
Zhang Ziming was stunned for a moment, the name "Inspiration Sutra" was the first time Zhang Ziming had heard of it.
Lotus Zhenren seemed to have expected Zhang Ziming's reaction, a smile appeared on his lips, looked at Zhang Ziming and said, "Inspiration Sutra, you are not familiar with it, this is normal."
But its other name is well-known to the world, and anyone who has anything to do with it will definitely cause many cultivators to chase after it frantically.
That's it, the method of understanding!"
As soon as Lotus Zhenren's voice fell, Zhang Ziming's heart was shocked in an instant!
The method of perception?
What's going on?
